About Rhonda
Rhonda uses straightforward methods to help clients build coping skills and improve daily routines. She emphasizes clear communication and practical steps like stress-management techniques, problem solving, and small behavior changes. Sessions often include exploring what matters most to the person and identifying actions that support those values.
Her background includes long-term practice in community and clinical settings across Michigan. That experience has shaped a collaborative style that combines several therapeutic approaches. Rhonda draws on methods that focus on thoughts, behaviors, relationships, and present-moment awareness.
People come to Rhonda for help with relationships, parenting strain, addiction concerns, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those navigating aging, cancer, caregiver stress, and end-of-life or hospice related concerns. Her approach aims to reduce distress while helping clients find practical ways forward.
Rhonda invites prospective clients to talk about what matters most to them and what they hope to change. She strives to create a respectful, down-to-earth space where people can try new coping tools and see what works in their everyday life.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. It can help with anxiety, mood challenges, sleep, and behavior changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and communication, which can be helpful when relationship patterns or intimacy issues are a concern.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Rhonda works with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and life situation. She takes a collaborative stance and may combine elements from different approaches as needed so clients have tools they can try between sessions.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session formats before booking since specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, or choose shorter check-ins when needed. The therapist will discuss practical session details and help find an approach that fits daily life.
